As the Ukraine crisis quickens and nations respond by implementing Russian Sanctions, UK businesses will be considering how the developing measures will directly affect their trade with Russia
The most publicised early measures were financial but have quickly developed into restrictions to exports of equipment and manufactured goods. UK businesses exporting to the oil and gas, aerospace and transport industries will be impacted.
As we see prices at the petrol stations soar, we may soon see the prices of staples such as bread increase, impacted in the first instance by the increase in haulage costs due to price of fuel, then by restrictions on Russian grain - Russia is major source of imported wheat.
